About Bernadette

Experience: 10 yrs

I began caring for and being around infants and small children at the age 12. After high school, I was a Nanny in the San Francisco Bay area for a retired 49'ers player. After returning to the Pacific Northwest I began working in Preschools. I continued in that field for over a decade until the birth of my third child. At that time, I returned to school to finish a BA in Economics. I left the corporate world in 2010 and received training in teaching horsemanship to disabled children and adults. I returned to nannying in late 2012. I have worked with multiples, newborns to teenagers, as well as physically and developmentally delayed individuals. In addition, I have managed several spas and have experience in hiring, budget analysis, HR, marketing, and operations. I am organized, professional, punctual, discretionary and reliable.

I had the pleasure of working with Bernadette at a Therapeutic Riding Facility and got to see her patience and professionalism first hand. She's dedicated and has an easy going nature that connects with kids (and animals!). She has experience with children with a wide range of abilities and is always kind and caring.
